Parliamentary elections
Members of Parliament are elected every fourth year. Election day is the third Sunday of April. Every Finnish citizen who has reached the age of 18 not later than on the day of the election is entitled to vote in parliamentary elections. The Finnish Parliament comprises 200 representatives.
In parliamentary elections, the country is divided into electoral districts. A proportional number of MPs is elected from each electoral district. However, one MP is always elected from the Province of Åland. MPs are elected in direct proportional elections: each group, such as a party, gets the number of MPs it is entitled to, based on the number of votes it receives in proportion to other groups.
